Feed Sparingly

Not all species of chelonia are fruit eaters, so the fruit of the Pear should be only offered as a small part of the diet to tortoises and turtles that would naturally have fruit in their diet. Pear pips/seeds, like the pips/seeds and stones of other fruit should be avoided. See Pear (Tree).
